Stockwell Hole January 2013

I missed a fair few pieces that month would be my guess due to being away (nope, nowhere hot and sunny unfortunately).
Here is what I caught anyway.

Woohoo, was I slow on this one or what.
Anyway, here are the snaps I managed to catch last December, I have probably missed a fair few with being away and all that but still there is plenty to feastg your eyes on so here they are:

Magic Roundabout, Ealing 90s

I know/remember nothing whatsoever about this one.
Enlighten me if you can.

Some pub gigs flyers 90s

With the infamous  11th International Dental Congress (who came 2nd in an NME worst band name list, the name being the first non musical event ever to take place a t the Royal Albert Hall in London (trivia trivia trivia))

 List of gigs at the George Canning in Brixton (nowadays the Hootananny)

 At the monarch pub in Camden

The Night School 18-01-1992

And now for some pictures of the yard and the inside outside of party time.

Cool Tan Dole House late summer 1995

Housed in the old Brixton dole office Cool Tan Arts (who took their name from their first squatted venue up on Effra Road) did a great job of running this inclusive community squat come venue from late 1992 until their eviction around late September 1995. This involved a lot moire than just great parties, regular cafe nights were on and a lot of militant/activist stuff too.

You can read more on its history on Urban 75

Here's 3 flyers that have come my way from the final parties.

Saint Agnes Place

St Agnes place was a (partially) squatted street in Kennington SE11 from 1971ish until November 30th 2005.

In that time it housed and provided refuge for 100s of people from various walks of life.

It had 2 yards where travellers could come and park and was also home to a Rasta community (see third image).

It has now been replaced by wastelands of rubble surrounded by metal grills.

Stockwell Paint November 2012

Less crappy snaps from me this month due to the colder climate life events and earlier darkness meaning I often pass the basketball court after dark and I don't think flash photography from my crappy snapper would do justice do the hard work people put in there, anyway here goes.

Paint from the Hole October 2012

I missed a fair amount of work I think, mostly due to passing by after dark nowadays and this not being ideal for photographs.

 and a lot more after the jump

The End Of The Yardiverse, Galena Road W6

Flyer for the eviction weekend minifest at the Galena Road yard and houses in W6.
Circa 1994
Waiting for more info  on this at the moment. So far managed to find a  mention here and here.

Hilden House,Parry Street February 1st 1991

Large office/commercial building on Parry Street in Vauxhall, some of the Brixton skate-park crew had been co-opted and had built a large half-pipe type ramp in one of the rooms next to the one where the gigs happened.

This is a flyer for what turned out to be a not happening party as the place got busted by police in the afternoon and the electrics cut off so it ended up being candles and ghetto blasters only.

September 2012 @ The Stockwell Hole

Here is this past month offering of spraypaint in Stockwell. My camera crapped out on one day so there are some even worse quality pictures than usual amidst it all, still some stunning pieces in there.

The August coats in the Stockwell Hole

Here is your (now) monthly instalment of fresh paint from Stockwell, I missed quite a few but they are way too quick, most pieces are short-lived and if you don't catch them straight away then they're gone forever.

It seems that CHT who own the place now has plans to remove some of the walls and so this place might not last that much longer, this would really be a shame if it came to pass as as you can see for yourselves there are some truly great pieces of art being created there.

Post now edited with another 15 pieces I had somehow missed when uploading. They are at the end of the post.

Stockwell Hole July 2012

And so a few more weeks have passed and here are the pieces I managed to snap. Less activity than usual I though, probably due to the awful weather and also maybe some of the perps going down to the BOS in Perpignan 2 weeks ago and the recent arrests related to ongoing sport event which you apparently cannot call the Olympics London Summer 2012 due to some copyright bollocks or some such; anyway, enjoy the snaps.

And one more installment in the irregular stockwell wall of fame series.

 I guess this might be a commissioned piece.
